Description

Use this room with 9 links as a supplemental tool while reading "A Young Tinkerer Builds a Windmill, Electrifying a Nation" from myPerspectives/Savvas Realize Unit 5 - 7th grade. This supplemental assignment can also be used for frontloading The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind and Earth Day!

8 student friendly videos and 1 podcast on the first slide provide valuable supplemental information to increase background knowledge. Students are then asked to complete a graphic organizer on slide 2 and answer five questions in response to what they learned from the resources on slide 3.

Students benefit when supplemental material is vetted, available and frontloaded prior to a unit of study. By allowing exploration of valuable resources, it creates opportunity for deeper understanding, stronger connections, and increases supportive information students need for writing in response to what they learn.
